    Definitely so!

    I have slightly more than 1000 jumps on my mPOD now. I'm never going back! Euhm, not really, no. I wrote an article for the BPA Skydiving Magazine about my experiences with the mPOD. The article can be read online on their website: http://edition.pagesuite-professional.co.uk/launch.aspx?referral=mypagesuite&pnum=&refresh=d07F19Gt5f1T&EID=fa8161d4-96c3-43a4-b046-eb59ff49abad&skip=/ Loading their webreader and browsing to page 13-15 might take a while. Send PM to get an electronic copy for easier reading.

    You're probably referring to the mPOD: http://pgasus.be/start.php?lang=en Get one. You'll love it.

    30 cells ! Interesting: 6 times tri-cell + 3 times quad-cell in the center = 30 ...

    I'm looking for the SCM. The USPA website is not working properly, and I see the following message every now and then: "hacked by 1923Turk Efeler Ozel Harekat DigitALL Efe KroNicKq Nofearx38" If somebody could send me a direct link to the SCM, that would help ... Thanks, M.

    Get one of these: http://www.chutingstargear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=50_54&products_id=391 or have your rigger make one for you (will be cheaper).

    Maybe have a look at the snaps on the Competition Velocity. This addresses the same problem you're trying to fix and PD has done all the R&D and testjumps for you. I've jumped the same canopy with and without those snaps, and the difference is very noticeable. http://performancedesigns.com/docs/RDS_operational_instructions.pdf

    You can even get rid of the 2 stows. Check out the mPOD: http://www.pgasus.be/start.php?pg=text&item=mPOD I have 500 jumps on mine, about 50% freefly, and 50% hop-n-pop.

    VRW - Update

    breadhead replied to freekfly's topic in Freeflying

    Keep it simple and change the title of this section.

    Orientation would be very interesting for swoopers.

    The speed course was not an FAI/IPC speed course. It was a 55m long S-carve, instead of a 70m carve.

    Should be available soon (March 1st the very latest) at http://www.fai.org/parachuting/documents/sportingcode2009 and of course http://vrw4way.com And yes, should be in the 2009 SCM.

    According to what IPC rule? I know at least two competitors at the last WPC in South-Africa who were swooping with their chest straps disconnected (while landing that is, not while exiting the plane).
